I can only use the web app currently so I ran a Bible word search on φιλαδελφία and then ran a LXX search using the Septuagint with Logos Morphology which is my current priority for LXX. The word came up in three verses in Maccabees

Then I changed it to Swete and it had the same three verses.

If you were looking for the results in the guide under the LXX tab I don't get any results there either. To really check it you have to run the search against the LXX itself.

Okay that make sense. thank you, Matt! ☺️

for those who wanna know why it made sense : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septuagint#:~:text=Perhaps%20most%20significant%20for%20the,contemporary%20Hebrew%20scriptures%20were%20discovered.

I have duplicated the word study to show different parts:

Yes, thank you Nichtnur, I've figured that due to Hebrew scrolls doesn't have Maccabees books, so it won't return any result as the Septuagint Translation were suppose to get the Hebrew word used found in Hebrew scrolls. 😊

I think the issue is the LXX doesn't translate the NT (Hebrews). The LXX does contain the four Maccabees and thus searches find the instances.

Interesting factoid: Both Eusebius and Jerome assigned 4 Macc to Josephus, and therefore its inclusion in later Josephus collections.
